ol.'iiinn tho occasion was one ior
tho country at Inrjre, President
Wilson, for tho socoihI tiinL' in lik
administration, today camo to tho
Capitol to personally deliver a
message to congress.
The Piexidcnt demanded
action on the Currency
Bill, whiuh is to bg formally placed
before congress tit once. The keynote
of hia speecli was that the
currency measure is ,11 twin with
tho tariff bill and that currency
is vitally necessary to enable
tho business' inteiests of the

Ho pleaded in particular for

that theymitjht be "the servants,
not tho masters, of the people."
An Administration Bill.
Speaking afterwards to the Nation
through tlie newspaper
and declaring that no President
"would be audacious enough
to play politics with the credit ol
the Nation,' President Wilson announced
that the whole weight of
the administration would be put in
to tho support of the Currency
Reform Bill to bo introduced in
tho seriate by Senator Owens of
Oklahoma, and in the house by
Representative Glass of Viiginia.

lie said that only two altei natives
aio possible Mil reorganizing
the currency system of the country:
whether the people themselves
or tho bankeis will control.
The Currency Bill, be said, was'
just as much an administration
measure as tho Underwood Taiill'
Bill.
Will Push It Through.
The proposal that a central
boatd of control be appointed by
the President, with the consent of
the senate, would not be changed.

a plan places too much power in
the hands pf a, "political President,"
ho replidd that no Chief
Executive could bo sufficiently audacious
to attempt to gain political
advantage through the use of
the Natiotr'b credit.

Emergency Authorisation.

of emergency currency, to bo
available only when needed, 'as in,,

President said that the figure was
placed at $300,000,000 because
during the panic of 1907 the
amount of clearing 'house certificates
issued was less than half
that sum.
The inevitable result of tho pas-sago
of tho proposed currency le.
gislation, the President thinks,
will be thot the people will rule
the banks, not that the hankers
will rale the people.
